What Can An Attorney Do To Help?

Pedestrian accidents often involve extensive investigation that individuals do not have the resources to pursue. Your attorney will work to obtain all of the evidence necessary to prove what happened in your case, including:

  • Accident reports
  • Eyewitness accounts
  • Video and photographic evidence

Your attorney will be your advocate, handling all communication with other parties involved. This includes the negotiation process. If the other side and their insurance company do not make a fair offer, the attorneys at Cerussi & Gunn, P.C. will be ready to take your case to trial if necessary.

Pedestrian Accidents Are Often Devastating

When we look at the statistics provided by the New Jersey Department of Transportation, we can see that there were more than 270,000 total vehicle crashes in the state during the latest reporting year. The DOT says that NJ citizens face a high risk of pedestrian accident injuries and fatalities, more so than those in other states in the US.

Thousands of pedestrians were injured and 183 were killed in NJ according to the latest year of data available.

Pedestrians have no protection from the force of a vehicle slamming into them. It is not uncommon for pedestrians to suffer from serious injuries as a result of a crash, including:

  • Broken and dislocated bones
  • Spinal cord injuries
  • Traumatic brain injuries
  • Internal bleeding or organ damage

  • The cost of your medical expenses related to the incident
